As he will only be in his early 20s at the start of the war, no way is he going to get a cruiser even by war end.

Quite possibly a mine sweeper or an antisub frigate. There were lots of those with lots of very young skippers.

Roger, of course, like the 'real' Roger, would have gone into the air force.

Dick? Remembering the Beckfoot pigeon alarm, maybe he would have become a boffin and even worked at TRE Bawdsey Manor, whose towers Roger spotted on the return voyage from Flushing... Or if he followed his father into Egyptology and deciphering ancient scripts, he might have finished up decrypting Ultra at Bletchley.
